So which criticism of Floyd is more prevalent right now?

[tredh]

Sadly most posters here allow personal beliefs and/or feelings towards a fighter cloud their judgment about their in ring abilities and accomplishments. I could name dozens of examples but it would ultimately be an exercise in futility.

Whats worse is that they will deny that they do that until the end of time. When it is so obvious that is what they are doing.

That's why I pick my threads carefully here in "non stop boxing". There are a lot of intelligent, nonbiased guys here from around the world. But usually it only takes one or two dumbasses to **** up an otherwise intelligent thread completely.

Some people hate admitting their wrong at these things though. It's a mental illness IMO

If Mayweather wins it's because Ricky is a bum. If he loses, it's because Mayweather always ****** and he was so bad he got beaten by a bum named Hatton. That is what will be said here on December 9th. Revisionists love making **** up.

I love how a guy with noteable wins over Tszyu and Castillo, and a record of 43-0 with some solid opposition (though not know by most here who don't watch British boxing) is a bum. Like these ****ing keyboard warriors could beat anybody Hatton or Mayweather has.

Are you talking about Joepal and Joeartcc? These two guys spew so much bull**** its getting out of hand. I agree 100% with your post.

I'm talking about all of them, but yeah, they're definitely included. Running around, digging up unknown guys on their records from boxrec, talking about it like they actually seen the fight, dismissing a fighter's entire career based solely on the fact that they "never heard of" (insert fighter here) on (any fighter except Pacquiao's record here).

It's one thing to talk ****, it's another to cross the line and blatantly disrespect any guy who tapes up his hands to get in the ring and risk his life for your entertainment.

Agreed. apart from the floyd win part, i have no idea who to pick and i think its better that way because come the night of the fight i wont be routing for any fighter, il just be looking for a good fight. Your right ricky is very humble. He heads into town to the local pub and throws some arrows with the locals and i cant say floyd does any of that type of stuff with his locals. I think with Hattons humbleness itl be hard for floyd to get at him mentaly, making this an interesting fight in many ways because no fighter will be coming in, guns blazing because they're annoyed. Can't wait!

I personally feel it's better to root for someone respectfully but I feel you 100%, sometimes it's better to just not predict a winner, to just watch the fight and hope the guns go pop and the action is worth the money, when fights like that go down you'll be happy either way because you got to see a good fight, you get what you wanted. I pick Floyd because I can't help but dissect into the fighters styles and IMO Floyd got it but I feel where you coming from, thats how I was when Barrera fought Naseem Hamed, I fell back on the predictions and till this day I still remember how hyped I was in that fight because to me either could have won, it was no preference but in a more recent fight with Taylor and Pavlik I was kind of disappointed that Taylor couldn't pull it off, I give Pavlik 1,000% respect but I was really rooting for Taylor so when he lost I was more like "****!!", I can see how it took away from the way I viewed that amazing action packed bout, had I not picked anyone my reaction to the outcome would have been way different on the real.. 100

You were talking loads of **** when Pavlik beat Taylor. Yet, I looked in your post history and could not find many predictions of Pavlik beating Taylor.

You said "I hate to say I told you so", to alot of the posters.

Only problem is...

you never told anyone anything.

Ummm, I can vouch that The Bringer bet points on Pavlik. I remember seeing it in his signature.
